MEMBERSHIPS CARDS STAMPED

Building
Update
Your continued efforts and donations of
time and treasure to the building fund are truly starting to be seen throughout
the club. Both work days were very
successful. What has been accomplished
to date? The chalkboard paint is
complete above the bar. The center rooms
have been vacuumed and de-cobwebbed. The
back meeting room is completely repainted.
The old stage has been torn out and the new stage has been installed. The
new storage room will soon be underway. If anyone has access to ceiling tiles
for less than .50 a square foot please let us know.
With your continued support following the finishing of
the inside paint job, we look forward to the replacement of the existing dance
floor and carpet soon to follow.
Holiday Party December 5, Happy Hour 4-5 with dinner
following.

AUXILIARY
Congratulations to our own Carole Browning, Redmond
Auxiliary Past President AND District Deputy, who was awarded at the recent
State fall conference. Carole was
recognized for her outstanding accomplishments in attendance, community service (Humane Society) and membership. Way to go, Carole! We’re very proud of you!
Our recent Fall Bazaar was a huge
success, resulting in more than $700 that will benefit the American Diabetes
Association and Pope’s Kids. A big
thanks to all who helped with the bazaar and to all who helped support it!
Too bad Joan Turshin and Cathy Dunn weren’t at the
October meetings. They could have won
the membership jackpot. Now it’s up to
$90! Members, be sure to attend Auxiliary meetings.
You might be a big winner, but you have to be present to win!
ATTENTION EVERYONE – When you see flyers posted
announcing Ladies Auxiliary activities, please don’t take them. Please respect our efforts to publicize our

McDonald, recently made a generous donation – thank you Amanda!
REDMOND EAGLES BLOG
In March we announced that the Redmond Eagles now has a Blog, However,
unfortunately, yours truly reported the wrong address. I’m sorry about the error. Some of you might have figured out that the
address should have included our Aerie number as 3324, not 3325. The complete,
correct address is http://redmondeagles3324.blogspot.com
Please use the Blog instead of email so you
can access the newsletter and other news items anytime. PLEASE NOTE: Let us know if you still prefer to have the
newsletter mailed to you. We would
like to be able to mail the newsletter only to people who want it mailed. We can cut down on printing and mailing
expenses if we know who doesn’t want to have the newsletter mailed to
them. Questions? Contact Ruby at 425-889-0130, or Cece at jimncece@yahoo.com, or Ritzy, our Blog

PEOPLE HELPING PEOPLE
The Eagles motto, “People Helping People,” starts at home, and the Ladies
Auxiliary recently demonstrated that by making a generous donation to the
Aerie. The Aerie said it was really
needed and “just in time.”
IT PAYS TO ATTEND AERIE & LADIES
AUXILIARY MEETINGS
A friendly reminder to all Aerie and Ladies Auxiliary members: Meetings are held on the 1st and 3rd
Mondays of every month, so join your fellow members, take part in the
activities AND you also might win
a few bucks. No big winners at the Aerie
meetings in January, but it could be YOU in February!
The Auxiliary membership pot continues to grow. Michelle Primeau and Colleen Lewis could have
been big winners if they had been at the January meetings. Now the pot is up to $140.00. Mavis Board and Myrna Talaga won the
attendance pots. You, too, can be a
winner. Just come to the meetings on the
1st and 3rd Mondays of the month.
RAISING THE ROOF – FUNDS THAT IS
The weekly 50-50 drawing is off to a good start with two lucky winners in
January – Andy Taylor ($73) and Jay Gates ($75). The money that has been raised for the roof
has been put into a special savings account especially for the roof – no other
purpose. Additional donations are
welcome, as well as other ideas for raising funds. Thanks, everyone! Don’t forget to get your ticket ($1 each) for
the next drawing. Drawings will be held
every Friday at 7:30 p.m. YOU MUST BE PRESENT TO WIN! So come
on down, enjoy a Friday night at the Eagles, buy a 50-50 ticket and maybe
you’ll be a winner too!

TRAVEL CLUB NEWS
We would like to thank all of you who supported the 2013 Crab Feed. It was a huge success! Congratulations are in order to “the Biggest
Crab Eater” and all the raffle ticket winners.
The Crab Feed would not be possible without the many volunteers it takes
to put on this event. We would like to
thank the bartenders, the Boy Scouts and everyone else who helped. We could not do it without you!
Please join us on February 13 for our next meeting. Our 2013 outings are being planned, and we
would like your input on trips you’d like to schedule.
PARKING ISSUE
Please take care when you back your vehicle into a parking space. The bumper might block the walk way for
people coming into the club. This is
especially difficult for people with disabilities. Please make sure there is plenty of room for
people to walk (or use wheelchairs) safely in the walk way. Thanks for your cooperation.
DINNER FOR TENT
CITY RESIDENTS
The Ladies Auxiliary is making plans to provide a dinner for Tent City
residents (at St. Jude’s Church in Redmond)
on Sunday, April 7. If you’re interested
in helping, please contact Cece at 425-885-4604.
A
Special Message from LeaAn Schmitt
“I just want to thank all of you for your
thoughts and prayers and give you a quick update. Two rounds of chemo were very successful, so
I am moving on to start radiation in the coming weeks. Feeling good about that! Again, thank you for your thoughts and
prayers for me and my fantastic family who are a continuous source of support
and assistance for me, as are all of you.”
PLEASE NOTE: Items for
the newsletter are due by the 20th of the month. Please place your items in the newsletter box
or call Cece at 425-885-4604. Thanks!
